Do you feel stuck in familiar emotional or relational patterns? Overthinking, second-guessing yourself, or carrying a sense that something inside you isn’t fully settling? Maybe you feel anxious, disconnected, have chronic aches, or exhausted from trying to “figure yourself out” without lasting change. Many clients come to me when traditional talk therapy hasn’t been enough & they’re ready to include the body in healing. Therapy can be a place to soften, breathe, and come home to yourself again. Together, we slow down, listen to your nervous system, and gently shift patterns from the inside out so real, embodied change can begin.

You may be functioning on the outside, yet feel disconnected, unfinished, or quietly burdened by experiences that were never fully integrated. I offer a grounded, compassionate space for people seeking more than symptom relief. This work supports deeper self-understanding, emotional truth, and inner coherence. My approach is holistic and relational, attending to mind, body, and spirit, with an emphasis on safety, pacing, and trust.

Wanting deeper intimacy, a stronger sexual connection, or better communication with your partner is common—but figuring out how to get there can feel complicated. Many of us long for closeness yet fear what might happen if we’re truly seen. What if I give up too much of myself? What if I get hurt again?

Dallas, TX 75252
You’ve always been the strong one—the helper, the achiever, the one others depend on. But now, something in you is crying out. You’re tired of over-functioning, weary of performing, and quietly wondering, “Who am I beneath the woman showing up for everyone else?” I work with women in transition—those at a soul threshold where the old ways of coping are no longer working, but the new self hasn’t fully emerged. Many of my clients are high-functioning trauma survivors navigating burnout, codependency, spiritual disconnection, and identity loss. They often say, “I can’t live like this anymore, but I don’t know another way...”

Psychologist, PhD
Dallas, TX 75206
It is my belief that psychotherapy has the best chance to be effective when the client and therapist have a strong therapeutic alliance. That is, they have a good working relationship and are working toward exactly the same goals using methods or approaches best suited for the client. I strive to achieve this by providing a warm and safe climate, listening closely to the needs of my clients, and discussing our options and strategies.

I fully understand how overwhelming life can be at times, and believe that everyone can benefit from reflective and compassionate support. I believe that therapy is not "one-size fits all", therefore I tailor the process to the unique needs of each client. However, at the core of all of my work is a strengths-based approach. Sessions focus on self-awareness, altering negative thoughts, self-esteem building, and challenging my clients in a non-judgmental and empathetic way. My passion is working with teenagers and adults. If you feel like we would be a good fit, let's connect! I can't wait to talk to you.

With experience providing trauma-focused therapy through a Children's Advocacy Center, I use TF-CBT and somatic approaches to help clients process difficult experiences and build resilience.
I work with children, teens, and young adults who need a safe, supportive place to navigate life's challenges. Many of the clients I work with have experienced trauma, anxiety, difficult life transitions, or situations that leave them feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or alone. I strive to create a nonjudgmental space where young people can show up exactly as they are, feel heard, and explore their experiences without shame. My goal is to help clients and families move from simply getting through each day to finding healing, hope, and confidence in themselves again.

Are you in a season of life that looks “fine” on the outside, but feels heavy or unfamiliar inside? You may be driven and capable, used to performing under pressure, yet anxious, mentally depleted, and emotionally stuck. You might be the one who keeps everything moving at work and at home, while quietly wondering why success hasn’t brought the steadiness, meaning, or closeness you expected. You’re ready for relief that’s real, not just another way to push through. I’d be honored to help you create a more sustainable way to lead, love, and live.
